The Newest Member Of Red Sox Nation

I'm a big Hank fan. Just to ensure he knows how cool Red Sox Nation is, we officially inducted him as a member of Red Sox Nation and we are sending him his membership card giving him access to an array of options including our newsletter, bumper stickers, pins, Green Monster seats and a hat personally autographed by David Ortiz.

Was catching up on ST news early this morning and saw this story. Have been LMAO ever since.God I hope Lil' Hanky stays around a while. Talk about instant fodder for punch lines. It's like having the ineptitude of the Bush administration to laugh at without the serious ramifications for the rest of the world

I guess ineptitude may not be exactly the right word. W is very inept in his command of the english language, which is ironic when you consider that most conservatives think no other language should ever be uttered on our soil. Maybe almost laughable would be a better fit for his actions, except that the results are no laughing matter. Like Lil' Hank, he blurts out whatever statements will support his version of the truth, with no regard for actual facts, he considers himself the rightful "ruler of the world" and has the wealth at his disposal to continue strengthening his kingdom. As you point out though, he has done this very effectively and convinced way too many people that he is their hero, their Cowboy from Texas riding in to save them. What a farce! Great PR, though. Of course, George did this for a long time, there ARE a lot of Yankee fans out here in no-team's land. But the Sox fans are growing in number, and we're already seeing the demise of the NY power machine. Maybe the neocon stranglehold on DC will follow
